Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great part time laptop. I wish Best Buy would offer the 16G ram model but if it were that big of a deal breaker for me I would have just bought it from Apple. Solid Apple product that is amazing especially if you’re living in the Apple ecosystem. Files transfer very easily from phone to iPad to iMac to MacBook. Thin design and they have plenty of adapters for ports and such. The M1 chip is great, can’t see too much performance difference from that and the intel chip in my iMac 27.

Sleek and stylish, this laptop is great. Plus its very affordable. I love how vibrant the screen is. The device is very thin and easy to hold. When you are using it for a long time the system does not get hot at all on the bottom. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a seriously power laptop in a compact size.

Fantastic, fast, BEAUTIFUL laptop. I stare in awe at it everyday. The MacBook Air m1 is lighting fast and GORGEOUS. I prefer the wedge shape over the m2. The speed and portability is outstanding. I love this laptop and I’m SO glad that I decided to pick it up. My best purchase in YEARS.

I’ve had an iPhone and an I watch for several years and a friend of mine gave me their old MacBook Pro but it’s so old that I can’t update it anymore and I’m going back to school for the first time in 20 years and I needed a new computer. And I knew that would be nice to have a Mac system because it would sync with my other devices, And as much as I know they’re worth it I couldn’t afford a 2023 MacBook Air and I needed something light. But I looked it up and I read that the 2020 MacBook Air‘s were rated very well And it ends up being less than half the price of buying a brand new one even with the AppleCare coverage. So I’m really happy with it because it was a way for me to get a new computer which I’ve never had in my entire life, and I got the brand I wanted just a model that was a few years older, but never been used. And it was super easy to set up. It couldn’t have been easier. So I am very very happy with the purchase.

I absolutely love this little MacBook Air. I needed something smaller than my HP to take to work or other places. It’s amazing on battery, beautiful screen and colors, fast and I absolutely love the ease of use. I have mostly Apple products and this makes it easier to do everything. I use this MacBook Air for everything except gaming lol

Best mac laptop for the price. What i Like: - Light weight, M1 chip its fast - SSD 256gb is enough for everyday task, Playing some runescape, making presentations with keynote. - Battery its great!! What i dont like: as today, nothing, my last macbook was a 2011 Macbook pro that last tills this day,

This was my first MacBook since I wanted to try something new, I read reviews and watched videos about the current model M1 chip. Compared to the previous laptop I bought (Envy 360x i5 256gb 8gb ram) The Macbook blew it out of the water. The batter life is absolutely amazing and it’s speed beat the envy in terms of software like Clip studio and illustrator as well as portability! All in all it’s a great laptop, it will take time to get use to if you’ve used only PC before

This was a great purchase. I love everything about it. It's fast. It was easy to transfer info from my previous Mac to this one. The color is great. This was a good purchase.

My first Mac.. I am finding is easy to begin with. though this mac Performance of this mac is pretty good. I find that the battery is fine and can run for longer without connecting to power. I have started to love this apple product when compared to earlier.

Couldn't be happier. Long-time Mac and current 27" iMac user here, and after reading tons of reviews on the current (M1) line, it was pretty clear that the 13" M1 MacBook Air was the right choice for me in terms of power, portability, and price point. I had an 11" MacBookAir years back that I loved, and I love this one even more. Best Buy was great... my new Air came right away, much faster than other shops were offering. Highly recommend!

Love the color and of course, Mac is always an easy set-up to start using right away.

This MacBook Air with the M1 chip is an incredible performer. Super portable due to its size and weight. Outstanding display quality and incredible battery life. The only knock is the lack of ports. Only 2 USB C/Thunderbolt 4 ports and one will be consumed by the charger when plugged in. You can remedy this with a large choice of external dongles or hubs, but you really shouldn't have to purchase those additional accessories for a near $1000 laptop.

I like it is nice and works well and smoothly runs. It’s light weight and fast. Also great battery life.

I am a college student and was looking to get my first ever laptop. I've always used Windows OS but after using MacOS, I can't believe I was missing it the entire time. The optimization, simplistic UI, and you simply can't overlook the speed of M1 chip in this thing. On top of that, you will get a 2560x1600 resolution which I must say, is "crisp". I prefer Air because of it's size, portability, and battery can suffice for more than a day's work. 10/10 recommend it ;)

One of the best computers for school and I loved the color! The customer service was also so nice and fast as I placed the order online and just picked it up!

I have had my Macbook for just over a year now. I LOVE this thing!!! It worked great for keeping up with paperwork as a SPED teacher last school year. It's really easy to travel with, I have taken it on a road trip and I was able to coneect to the WIFI in my car and keep working on a course while being a passenger princess. I have also taken it on a flight to Hawaii and it was so nice to watch movies on the flight. This is one of the lightest laptops I have owned and makes traveling with it so easy. I am so thankful the employee at Best Buy asked what I would be using my Macbook for and suggested the MacBook Air to me so I was able to spend less than I planned to.

Great laptop at a great price. While the MacBook Air is a great machine at the starting price, I was able to snag a Black Friday sale coupled with an open box deal, which made it hard to pass up. This computer is an excellent computer to achieve most user’s needs. It is a productivity dream, but it is able to handle video editing (to meet my needs), photo editing, along with other demanding tasks without showing fatigue. The screen on this laptop is gorgeous, the Touch ID is quick and a wonderful addition to a personal computer, the keyboard is best in class (so much better than those butterfly keyboards of old), and all of this in a thin, light machine. I love the portability of this computer, as it will be a main computer and a travel companion. Anything that needs pulled up feels as if it is waiting on demand - everything just snaps up and loads so quickly. The only complaint I have with the MacBook Air is its battery capacity. I will not deduct a star for the battery capacity because it will pretty much make it through an eight hour work day of productivity tasks including surfing the web, streaming and air playing video, and typing documents. After the eight hours have passed, the computer is on fumes and needs charged. This does meet my needs, though my three year old MacBook Pro did do better on lasting my daily needs. I am always near a charging outlet and charger, so this isn’t a huge deal, but I worry about battery degradation. This computer is such a powerhouse in such a small package and at a relatively affordable price considering what you get and after paying the Apple premium. It makes light work of all the tasks I throw at it. I definitely recommend this comptuer.

This is a great laptop. It is small in size and lightweight. It is also very quiet and fast. I highly recommend this.

I was a bit unsure of what to expect of the new Apple Silicon M1 MacBook Air, but I decided to make the purchase anyway. I’ve been pleasantly surprised. It’s kind of like having all the best parts of an iPad (except the touchscreen) mixed with all the best parts of a MacBook. It’s fast, especially in terms of the time it takes to get up and running. It may sound trivial, but being about to flip open the lid and have instant response is a game changer. It’s a quality product at a VERY reasonable price.

Macbook Air M1 works great. Love the long battery life and M1 chip is very fast. I feel it is faster than my macbook pro that has 32gb memory so very impressive. Was on the fence about the 8gb ram but it is very fast so it does feel like the apple vs android phone that even with "lower" specs it is more efficient. This is for my son at school and is an upgrade to the chromebook he was using. Will be getting another one for my daughter. I feel confident this will last them a long time.
